The store, built on the site of the former Green Man pub in London Road, also exceeded the number of HGV deliveries allowed per day and was found to be taking deliveries outside the hours of 9.30am to 10pm Monday to Saturday and 9.30am to 6pm on Sundays.

Councillor Paul Spooner, leader of the council, said: “The planning conditions were put in place to safeguard the residential amenities of neighbouring properties and we will continue to exercise our powers to ensure they are observed.

“The High Court’s decision is a positive step forward to ensure Aldi complies with the conditions.”

Aldi now has seven days to ask for an oral hearing to renew its application.

Residents have been critical of the supermarket's intention for a new store throughout the planning application stages, and made further claims that it had created traffic issues due to a lack of parking in the area.

The store had been refused permission to increase deliveries after residents objected to an application to remove a restriction on the number of HGV deliveries allowed each day and to extend the delivery hours.
